Just right for two generously portioned, healthy meals.
I was inspired to buy this Dutch oven by a video about the quaint, unelectrified cottage called Innermost House and the highly simplified lifestyle led by the couple that lived there. The wife, Diana Lorence, made all kinds of delicious-looking vegetable stews using this exact pot over coals. I ended up purchasing this alongside the cookbook "Glorious One-Pot Meals," and I’ve gone from eating a lot of frozen meals (as a single person) to doing a lot of cooking for myself. I put the meal into two bowls and save one in the fridge for the following day. It’s a great approach to cooking and really does take very little time.
The product is Staub, which alongside Le Creuset is one of the highest-end brands for Dutch ovens. Of course the quality is great. The bottom part is very easy to clean; the inside surface of the cast iron is quite smooth compared with my cast-iron skillet. The lid poses a couple of obstacles for cleaning. The ridge around the lid offers…
All the benefits of cast iron without the maintenance
This pot is the perfect size to make a meal for 2-3 people. You can’t beat cast iron for it’s heat retention but it can be a hassle to clean, dry, keep oiled…etc. This pot has a gorgeous enamel on the outside and a glaze on the inside that helps prevent sticking. Is it as non-stick as a Teflon pan…no; but it’s easy to use and easy to clean. I use mine all the time and just keep it on the stove top, it’s that pretty.
Perfect Piece of Cookware
This is one great piece of cookware. Absolutely first class. The foundry quality and enamel finish flawless…feels good. In the oven the contents will be cooked to perfection if the savy chef…ignores recipe cooking times. Your Staub will behave according to the contents you have placed inside. Take the lid off every 10/15 minutes to take a peek. The experienced cook will know when to add liquid, stir, turn and finally pull it from the oven.
